a couple of problems for romney. one, the tendency of voters to be hesitant about a big change right before an election. they go back to what they've got. and also this sense of there's not a whole lot of movement any direction. >> and the other thing that's happened is that early voting really has taken on a life of its own and it's no longer just election day as "the new york times" said. it's election month. so a lot of people are voting now, even before the debates have tart -- started. that's number one. number two, the debates generally tend to confirm trends that exist, rather than create entirely new ones. that's why there's so much pressure on mitt romney to do something truly dramatic because he is going against the tide of history here. >> yeah, i mean, absolutely agree with howard. there's a lot of pressure right now on mitt romney but it also comes down to just an overall theme that we keep bringing up. that he's got to somehow convince americans that he can make their life better. and right now they don

romney, i st. he is going to win it cleanly, but i think the kind of analysis in the political world that drives coverage to local television, i think it has to be seen as mitt romney won this debate because there is not another event that is going to have that kind of viewership that is going to get that kind of attention. that does well in ohio, but it does not give you what you need to change the narrative. tavis: i do not see the president falling on his face, but who knows? what do you make of the fact the campaign would even come down to this. you look at the experience and the exposure this guy has had, and it really does come down to whether he can pull it out. what do you make of the fact that it has come down to this? >> you have 60% of the people saying the country is on the wrong track. the majority of people disapprove of how obama is handling the economy at a time when people are saying the economy as the most important issue. on paper, mitt romney should be winning this election, bec
